Synopsis:
Southall United Football Club is facing its deepest crisis ever.
Bankrupt, with no stars, no coach, no sponsors, no takers, no
spectators and most importantly no owner. After the city council
sends an eviction notice, it’s the last chance to save the
ground, the club and their honor. Now, Southall United must win
the Combined Counties Football League in their otherwise last
season. One man's dream takes the team on a remarkable journey
in this football-themed drama. Shaan (Arshad Warsi) takes up the
challenge to save the club from extinction. After a disesteemed
ex-player, Tony Singh (Boman Irani) joins them as the coach, in
spite of the being sniggered, and laughed at, he and Shaan, work
to gather the worn out team. Its hard work as they approach their
first game.

Sunny Bhasin (John Abraham) dreams to play for England crashes
after his club does not select him. The reason is apparently not
his game but the color of his skin. Sunny himself had always laughed
at his own community and Southall United. Sunny and Shaan could
not ever see eye to eye. Adding to their personal chaos is Shaan’s
cousin sister Rumana (Bipasha Basu) who is in love with Sunny.
Tony manages to convince Sunny to play for Southall United. It
takes a while before Shaan and the team warms up to Sunny. With
Sunny joining Southall United the team gradually starts climbing
the points tally. The city council is worried.

The only goal that the pragmatic Sunny has is winning- with all
of the material perks and fame that he can acquire. He is more
interested in being noticed himself, than Southall United winning
the cup. Johny Bakshi (Dalip Tahil) a commentator and a frontman
of the council, plan to lure Sunny away from Southall United.
Sunny will need to sacrifices everything he believed in for something
which he never believed. His love for Rumana, his relationship
with his father and his life are at stake.

Set within this is a contemporary story of the Asian community
in UK told through the dynamic prism of professional sports. Competitive
football only provides the action-packed backdrop, as the story
takes an intimate look at a cross-section of Indians, Pakistanis
and other Asians living in England.
